Dubai's Miracle Garden set to reopen with strict safety guidelines

The much-loved Dubai Miracle Garden returns for its ninth season on Sunday (November 1).

The park will reopen under stringent health and safety protocols designed to ensure visitors can continue to enjoy a fun-filled experience within a safe environment.

The attraction this year will feature over 150 million flowers of more than 120 varieties.

This year, the 'aerial floating lady' dressed in exotic flowers will be among the highlights, with an enhanced night experience that showcases sculptures adorned with twinkling lights.

The revamped amphitheatre will feature a magnificent palace that serves as an observatory where visitors will be able to enjoy live entertainment and other shows. It will also allow visitors to capture the stunning panoramic views of the garden.

There's also a 400-metre walking track that will set the stage for daily costume and floral parades, street performers, Zumba sessions and other fun activities.

That's not all. Skillfully designed figures of popular cartoon characters and animals will welcome guests at the main entrance.

Other visual treats returning this year include the record-breaking Emirates A380 display along with an 18-metre floral structure of Mickey Mouse, the Floral Castle, the illuminated nightscape, and the distinctive Caribbean and Asian hammocks.

Dubai Miracle Garden will be open daily from 9:00 am until 9:00 pm during weekdays and from 9:00 am until 11:00 pm on weekends (Friday and Saturday) and public holidays.

Children below the age of three and people of determination can access the park for free.
